    Extend understanding of fraction equivalence and ordering.

    Understand decimal notation for fractions, and compare decimal fractions. Geometric measurement: understand concepts of angle and measure angles. Draw and identify lines and angles, and classify shapes by properties of their lines and angles.

    Math StandardsExplain why a fraction a/b is equivalent to a fraction (n × a)/(n × b) by using visual fraction models, with attention to how the number and size of the parts differ even though the two fractions themselves are the same size. Use this principle to recognize and generate equivalent fractions. (4.NF 1)

    Compare two fractions with different numerators and different denominators, e.g., by creating common denominators or numerators, or by comparing to a benchmark fraction such as 1/2.
